Extra-attributes suggestion!

[PxlSyl]

Hi again,

I don't know if there's a way to code what is in my head lol

But perhaps you noticed there's an "extra-attributes" feature in NFTchef repository, and with that we can add and customize "numbers" traits with the random.math function in many ways.

But is there a way to code a script (or an util script) which gives a specific number value for a given (layer) trait?

Could be great for gaming : rares/legendary NFTs with extra-power, or extra-speed for example!

Hi I haven't seen the extra-attributes feature in NFTchef let me put it in the backlog and look into it later!

@PxlSyl extra-attributes works out of the box, you can find it in step2/config.js. I just tested it, it works. In terms of adding specific traits for specific rares/legendaries, you would probably want to use the replace legendary feature https://github.com/jalagar/Generative_Gif_Engine#randomly-insert-rare-items---replace-util and create the configs yourself, or you can generate just rares/legendaries first with extraAttributes with another Math.random or something. I can keep this open but there are a few workarounds

Yeah I know it works as it is :) For the replace feature, it's not sufficient. Of course I will use it for handmade legendaries, writing the json manually. But the point and the goal are not there, in fact in a normal collection there are several degrees of rarity (apart from the legendaries which have nothing to do ^^) and there the goal would therefore be a utility script which allows to look if layer "x" is present in "y" json, then such math.random function should apply to add a specific number trait . I think for this you would need a js script, and a configuration file for this script, let me know what do you think? I know some other people are looking for the same thing! And perhaps some devs I know will implement this but IDK for now

[jalagar]

Got it that makes sense! I think that seems almost like a separate tool that could parse the JSONs and then append a random rarity. I would ask in Hashlips discord, someone might have wrote it for you. You don't even need it to be a part of this tool because its not directly related to GIFs and can be something added afterwards
